From 627072b06c362bbe7dc256f618aaa63351f0cfe6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chris Metcalf Date: Fri, 19 Oct 2012 11:43:11 -0400 Subject: arch/tile: avoid generating .eh_frame information in modules The tile tool chain uses the .eh_frame information for backtracing. The vmlinux build drops any .eh_frame sections at link time, but when present in kernel modules, it causes a module load failure due to the presence of unsupported pc-relative relocations. When compiling to use compiler feedback support, the compiler by default omits .eh_frame information, so we don't see this problem. But when not using feedback, we need to explicitly suppress the .eh_frame.
